Re: Discussion on October Design Summit Locations

 

I agree with Miami for October period. Anywhere up north on the east cost will be cold and there is the possibly of snow and snow storms during that time, no ? Miami will have a perfect weather and atmosphere. It's has pretty good international airport hub and it would also be good for those coming from South America as well. I believe it should be ok for those coming from EU as well, not sure on that.

+1 for New York (since that would be less travel for me) I'd be more
than happy to help do some org groundwork if it was in the city.

For southern choices, Miami has a decent sized airport, and October
should be shoulder-season. Also there's Atlanta (mega-huge airport), but
it won't really be any warmer than New York in October.

However, whatever the choice is, I'd like to say:

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY DO NOT MAKE ME GO TO ORLANDO FOR
ANOTHER CONFERENCE. kthxbye

New York, Boston... how about Toronto? I agree that if it is in the US,
it should be east-coast.  Keep in mind, too, that October in any of
these places will be fairly cold. Maybe we should think of a southern
location?

In regard to Asia, how about Singapore? English-speaking centrally
located between Europe, Asia, and Australia / New Zealand, and not
really any more expensive than Korea or Japan in terms of travel from
the US.  Oh, and being on the equator, the weather will be warm!
